Comment posted What Is Braggs Liquid Aminos by blackavenger.
Wow, all the gloom and doom ecofreaks are loose and active. It always happens when people make observations based on emotions instead of logic or emperical evidence. Almost everyone knows there are people with sensitivities to almost every kind of food or liquids. However, there are the majority who are not affected at all by the same foods or drinks.
We all must usually find the truth by ingestation and experience the results. The rants do nothing but foster arguments and muddle the truth.
Since I have high BP, salt or soy sauces or msg usually send it very high. I cant tell you scientifically why it happens, but I [and the wife] can and have used Braggs L-Aminos for 6 years in the place of salt. Our BP has come down and we now eat deliciously flavored foods with a little spritz of aminos and dont use salt or msg, etc, and we have never had any bad effects. We even carry a spritzer bottle when we travel to avoid the over salting of our foods by resturants.
The only problem is that I have to drive a 200 mile round trip to buy it or pay redicilous shipping charges by mail. Thats what livin in the boonies gets ya.
If you are on a salt restricted diet you would do well to try it. Ya might like it.

Rob,
Bragg’s is not a fermented soy product. Check their website: “Not fermented or heated and Gluten-Free.” http://www.bragg.com/products/la.html
Basically, Bragg’s is what many Chinese call “chemical soy sauce.” Its a cheap product and Bragg’s is only superior to them in that they do not add color or flavorings, but it is essentially the same thing.
Just wanted to mention that Earth’s General Store offers Bragg’s Liquid Aminos as a bulk refill. Just bring in your old bottle (or any other bottle) and we can refill it for you. You don’t save a whole lot (about 50 cents for a bottle) but you do avoid tossing another bottle away.
We also have the Bragg’s organic Cider Vinegar in bulk as well for refilling.
Just so everyone is AWARE: Bragg’s Liquid Aminos are NOT a FERMENTED soy product. It is hydrolyzed…and truly some tastey stuff indeed.
Braggs Liquid Aminos is most certainly not healthy for you. Avoid it at all costs.
Rob, how can you claim Braggs is fermented, when as Kelly Baird pointed out above, it says right on the label ‘NOT Fermented’? Which is the major problem with it.
i have had the sleeve stomach surgery and i am having a hard time getting enough protein is amino acid good for that.my hair is falling out so i have to find something. thanks
Rob, unfortunately, you’ve been taken in big time by their marketing! So easy to look at something that claims to be part of a “healthy lifestyle”. Just recently, I, too, purchased some liquid aminos but after doing some research have found it to be just the opposite of healthy. I’m poor so I’ll use the remaining half of the 1 quart bottle but will never purchase it again. Remember a “claim” is very different than a “statement of fact”. Liquid Aminos is not very different from soy sauce and has more salt to boot. I had all but eliminated added salt from my diet (vegan) and after just a short time using Liquid Aminos, have almost become addicted to it. I have started adding salt back to my cooked foods. So it’s definitely habit forming and sneaky Liquid Aminos is to blame. Their serving size is VERY misleading. So much for being a trusted partner in a healthy lifestyle. VERY deceptive practice. I’m no longer going to use it and recommend you become more objective and skeptical about the foods you eat and go more towards natural, unprocessed whole foods.
I have blood pressure can I have liqiud Amino ?
